Curriculum

The Growing Place not only provides a safe and loving environment for your children, but also focuses on their educational and social development.

We believe the curriculum we use provides the ideal plan for the healthy growth of your children.

At The Growing Place, we use the Creative Curriculum. It is one of the top early childhood curriculums recommended by Pennsylvania’s Department of Education.
The Creative Curriculum allows our teachers to use their own originality in each lesson plan based upon developmental needs of the child through state standards. The curriculum focuses on using the environment as a tool to build vocabulary, language development, socialization, fine and gross motor skills, and much more. Two checkpoint assessments are given in Spring and Fall to evaluate the child’s progress within the curriculum. We also use programs such as Jolly Phonics and Handwriting Without Tears to further develop each child’s vocabulary, literacy and writing skills.
